Today I was nervous for the day to begin. Yesterday was a really tough day - 4 seizures to be exact. When we started this, I knew we were in for a rollercoaster of ups and downs.
Fortunately, I was lucky to find Dr. Carrie Clark. She is a certified practioner of the GAPS diet in the Twin Cities area. She offers GAPS diet classes where she shares a wealth of information. I am so very thankful!
What I learned today:
There are four pieces to healing a chronic illness through the GAPS diet:
1. Remove offending foods
2. Replace nutrients that are missing
3. Repair the damaged gut lining - with the Bone Broth
4. Reinoculate - with lots of probiotics - mainly with homemade fermented vegetables and homemade
yogurt.
Olivia ended up having an ok day - no seizures.
